[Nmh-workers] Clearing `cur' Message.

2012-10-14 07:26:31
Hi,

How does one clear `cur' for a folder?  It can be set with `folder 42'
though the mandatory line of output is annoying.  It can be listed and
set with mark, e.g. `mark -seq cur -list', but not deleted;  attempts do
nothing.

I wish to clear it in a script so a later habitual `rmm' will complain
`no cur message' rather than remove whatever it happens to be.

When there is no current message, e.g. after `rmm', ~/.mh_sequences
still contains the old value and mark still lists it.  For a new folder,
there is no .mh_sequences but once one's created it seems cur never
leaves it.  If I delete the `cur:' line from .mh_sequences then all
seems well;  mark still lists it but it's empty.  Is that a valid
workaround?

Cheers, Ralph.
